Help - anyone got a long ladder and a head for heights in return for cash?!

[Giraffe]

I've underestimated the Christmas light task and can't put them where we want them.

Anyone out there who wants a bit of cash for getting them up please message me.

Would rather give some cash to a Brighton fan.

Have you got a large trampoline?

Insurance?

Get someone to risk their life putting up some Christmas lights.
Even window cleaners are no longer using ladders.

You have a fair point. I will reconsider.

Hope is ok now mate.
I came off a ladder that slipped, luckily I landed on my feet. Some silly old git asked me to help him with a chimney cowl, he put the ladder up and I fell off. Lesson learned as I should have checked it, thought it was ok as he was already on the roof.

When i was driving home this evening I noticed a fair few houses with Christmas lights on roofs and on guttering, I was wondering if anyone had ever fallen off a ladder when putting up lights.

Is there a safe way to do this then?

Or is everyone else taking these clearly stupid risks?

Is going up ladders a thing of the past?

We used to, only just moved to a house. Hence the problem.

Looks like I will go for a lower level effort.

It's not compulsory to have Christmas lights outside your house.
I put mine up inside the house, so. I can see them. I'm not putting them up outside the house for the benefit of the neighbours.

Given that this tree's in the middle of nowhere, why didn't they just cut it down in 1 go?
